6. Kobe Special 6-Woman Tag Match: Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki & Shoko Nakajima defeated Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh & Yuki Kamifuku when Mizuki pinned Kamifuku with the Diving Foot Stomp (14:50).

Mizuki bounced back from her Ittenyon failure by becoming the hometown hero in Kobe and winning the main event for her team. She told the fans she felt pretty depressed after losing the Princess Of Princess Title match but getting able to wrestle in Kobe today made her feel like she blew all of her problems away. Shoko Nakajima had no problem teaming with The Magical Sugar Rabbits but they will be opponents in the Max Heart Tournament the next time they are in the ring together. Nakajima said she played with a lot of toys at the beginning of the year and she learned her tag partner Hyper Misao is an unbreakable one. Nakajima wants to be unbreakable too so Kyoraku Kyomei are aiming to go all the way. 121000000 are also aiming to win after reaching the final last year. Even though Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh already have the singles championships, they still think they have to get stronger as a tag team. Yuki Kamifuku is waiting on her drinking buddy Asuka to arrive before she plans anything for the tournament.

In terms of experience levels the Max Heart tournament already kicked off with an upset. Moka Miyamoto & Yuki Arai eliminated Pom Harajuku & Mahiro Kiryu in the opening round. The two rookies have been regular opponents against each other but joined forces to enter the tournament. It is already paying off but Arai doesn’t want to stop here. Miyamoto also wants to keep advancing but knows it will be a difficult task with Suzume & Arisu Endo as the next opponents.

*V4 for Miyu Yamashita.

Tokyo Joshi Pro kicked off their 2022 in Korakuen Hall for their 7th annual Ittenyon show. In the main event Miyu Yamashita put the Princess Of Princess Title on the line against Mizuki. The champion went big by using an Avalanche Attitude Adjustment while Mizuki fought back with Diving Foot Stomps both in and outside the ring. The Whirling Candy was also used but Mizuki just couldn’t find the opening to win. She was able to stop the Crash Rabbit Heat from happening but Yamashita then went on the defensive and blocked the Cutie Special. Once the Skull Kick found its mark, Yamashita followed up with two Crash Rabbit Heats to win the match and remain champion.

Yamashita thanked Mizuki for the match and said she is very special for TJPW. For that reason she wants to fight her again and continue working together. Mizuki tearfully shook Yamashita’s hand and left the ring quietly with Yuka Sakazaki. Yamashita then turned her attention to “GRAND PRINCESS ’22” at Sumo Hall on 19th March. There is only one person she wants to defend the title against that day. Shoko Nakajima! She walked out and told Yamashita she’s been ready for a long time. They both had their official debut match on a DDT pre-show in Sumo Hall back in 2013 so they both grew up as wrestlers together. For them to main even the same building is a dream come true. But Nakajima will aim to go beyond the dream and become the new Princess Champion!

In a rematch from two years ago, Maki Itoh has reclaimed the International Princess Title from Hikari Noa! The match spread out of the ring a couple of times where Itoh Body Slammed Noa onto a pile of chairs and later gave her a Hangman DDT onto the floor. Noa used a rope break to escape from the Itoh Punish and hit her with the Blizzard Suplex and Super Kick. But Itoh showed her guts and stuck up the middle finger to show she wasn’t beaten yet. The two fought up to the top rope where Itoh dropped Noa with another big DDT. That was the beginning of the end and Itoh made Noa tap to the Itoh Deluxe for the title change! Now that Itoh is the IP Champion again, she wants to go back to AEW and defend it against the woman she originally lost it to… Thunder Rosa! She also wants to fight Orange Cassidy for some reason. Noa is upset over the result because she thought she was the best fit for the IP Title. She also now doesn’t have anything to protect. Once again she’s lost another partner.

The rookie of the year Yuki Arai showed off some new moves against Yuka Sakazaki including a Sharpshooter! The match was minutes away from reaching its time limit when Sakazaki caught her opponent with the Magical Merry-Go-Round to get the win. She was full of praise for Arai afterwards. “Guts, seriousness, politeness, cuteness, Yuki Arai has it all. She is a stone that will become a diamond.” While Arai appreciates the praise she gets after every match, she knows it won’t make her stronger. She wants to expand her moveset and grow even more so she won’t lose her confidence.

Nodoka Tenma took the old costume out of the closet to become Nodoka-oneesan one last time before she graduates from TJPW this March. Before the match began she reminded the audience (and Haruna Neko) to sleep well, live long and eat their vegetables before leading everyone into the Ping Pong Pang Exercise dance. Raku & Pom Harajuku were enthusiastic for it, Harajuku in particular which led to Nodoka talking to her after the match. Since Nodoka-oneesan is going away, Pom Harajuku can take her place! After all the original plan for Harajuku when she debuted was to be the new version of that gimmick but she ended up turning into something of her own creation. Harajuku turned her offer down because she’s having too much fun as a “3 year old”, leaving Nodoka to cry next to Yuki Aino backstage. Marika Kobashi cheered her up by saying she could sense Tenma’s pride as Nodoka-oneesan shine through.

The team of Yuki Kamifuku & Nao Kakuta walked down to the ring wearing Uma Musume inspired shirts and headgear. They called their tag team Uma x3 (pronounced “Uma baba”). There was no horseplay against Daydream when the bell rang though. Kamifuku hit a Double Famouser to Daydream but they recovered. Rika Tatsumi got rid of Kakuta while Miu Watanabe stood toe to toe with Kamifuku. Another Famouser was avoided this time and Watanabe pinned Kamifuku with the Tear Drop. Tatsumi described the match as a nightmare where they had to fight a horse racing tag team. She thinks the fans saw it as a good daydream though.

For the third year in a row Shoko Nakajima and Hyper Misao faced off in a wacky stipulation match where their entire identities were put on the line. This time a stuffed Tiger Cub toy was held above the ring and the first woman to climb the ladder and grab it would win. Nakajima emptied a box of Godzilla toys all over the ring while Misao emptied a box of gacha balls making every bump in the ring even more dangerous. The end came when Nakajima hit a 619, Double Arm DDT and then the Diving Senton from the ladder. She then climbed back up to grab the Tiger Cub and win. The stipulation allowed Nakajima to rename Misao for a month but she declined to do so. The Max Heart Tournament is beginning later this week and Kyoraku Kyomei are entering it together. She thinks giving Misao a new temporary gimmick would only get in the way because both of them want to win the tournament.

On this day one year ago Arisu Endo had her debut match. Today she picked up her first win! Endo and Moka Miyamoto were the focus for the final few minutes of the opener. Endo hit Miyamoto with the Tsuruma Castle Knee Drop and then a Waterwheel Drop. She finished her off with a Modified Camel Clutch to get her 2022 off to a fantastic start. Suzume was Endo’s opponent for her debut and was happy to be her tag partner for her first win. She weirdly feels proud like a parent. Mahiro Kiryu was disappointed not to win her first match of the year while Miyamoto swore revenge on Endo for losing to her this way.

The newest addition to the TJPW introduced herself at the start of the show. Juria Nagano is a former world champion karate fighter with a 2nd black belt in Shito-ryu. She is currently active as both an actress and a nurse and has also gotten viral on TikTok. Nagano announced she will have her debut pro wrestling match at Sumo Hall on 19th March. She said she would like to make full use of her skills to liven up TJPW.


TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW INSPIRATION” Results

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW INSPIRATION”, 10/12/2021
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
202 Fans

1. Mahiro Kiryu defeated Haruna Neko with the Spinebuster (7:50).
2. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi defeated Pom Harajuku with a Cross Armbreaker (10:26).
3. Hardcore Match: Hikari Noa defeated Nao Kakuta with the Blizzard Suplex onto a Chair (17:14).
4. MagiRabi Vs TropicaWild: Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki defeated SAKI & Yuna Mizumori when Mizuki pinned Mizumori with the Diving Foot Stomp (17:35).

Inspiration is back for its third go around. This time it was The Magical Sugar Rabbits getting to explore outside the realms of Tokyo Joshi Pro for opponents. They defeated the TropicaWild team of SAKI & Yuna Mizumori. It was a reunion for Mizuki and SAKI because they started wrestling together as a team called Buribato♡. They hadn’t been in the ring together for the last four years until today. Yuka Sakazaki described the match as amazing and she felt it had the energy of a championship defence. SAKI also had fun with the match while Mizumori will never forgive herself if she never gets to wrestle MagiRabi again.

In a very rare sight the TJPW mat saw bloodshed when Hikari Noa and Nao Kakuta fought in a Hardcore Match. Noa was busted open midway through in a match where ladders, chairs, CDs and glow sticks were all used as weapons. But Noa toughed it out in her second ever Hardcore match and had her arm raised in victory at the end. Kakuta also expressed an interest in doing more hardcore matches but next time she wants to be teaming with Noa.

The match before that could not have been any more different. Pom Harajuku and Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi spent just as much time in the ring singing, dancing and meditating than they did wrestle each other. Playtime was cut off when Hiroshi threw Harajuku to the mat and locked in a Cross Armbreaker to submit her. Hiroshi still praised her and described her as a very strong martial artist.

The opening match was familiar fare for TJPW. Although it was a first time ever singles match between Mahiro Kiryu and Haruna Neko.

Tokyo Korakuen Hall

7. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki (c) defeated Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh when Mizuki pinned Yamashita with the Cutie Special (24:17).
*V1 for The Magical Sugar Rabbits.

The final Korakuen Hall show for the year in Tokyo Joshi Pro saw The Magical Sugar Rabbits retain the Princess Tag Team Titles against 121000000. The battle came down to Mizuki and Miyu Yamashita in the final minutes. Yamashita had Maki Itoh on hand to set up team moves but Yuka Sakazaki was there to get rid of Itoh until she was struck down with the Skull Kick. It was all up to Mizuki from there and she had Yamashita on the ropes after hitting a release Cutie Special. Another Cutie Special this time with the bridge held got Mizuki the win and MagiRabi’s first successful defence in their latest reign.

When the beaten challengers were leaving the ring, Mizuki called for Yamashita to come back. She said she was able to win today with Sakazaki’s help. She also brought up that it’s been a year since she she decided to join TJPW full time. She loves TJPW and wants to carry the company on her back for the sake of everyone who supports her. So although she hates fighting against Yamashita, she wants to challenge her for the Princess Of Princess Title! How could Yamashita refuse? She accepted the challenge and wants the match to happen on the 4th January Korakuen show! Mizuki was warned that the title is not easy to win because Yamashita will never let go of the belt. Sakazaki encouraged Mizuki to commit to the challenge because she is amazing. Later in the night Itoh made a request to Yamashita to put 121000000 on hold for the time being. The team is not splitting up, they are just on a break so Itoh can review her wrestling ability on her own. They will team again when she is ready.

Hikari Noa has broken out of the Up Up Girls hierarchy with her latest International Princess Title defence. She has now beaten both of her Up Up partners as champion and also now has the record for most IP Title defences! Miu Watanabe threw all her best moves including using the Laserbeam to block a Dropkick. Noa had to use the Blizzard Suplex off the top rope to cause the big shift in the match before pinning Watanabe with the regular Blizzard Suplex. One of Watanabe’s favorite idols once said hard work always pays off. The lesson Watanabe learned today is training hard is not the same as working hard. Noa called the match the toughest battle she ever had. The longer she holds onto the belt the more she doesn’t want to let it go. It puts more pressure on her but she isn’t afraid of anything anymore. Which is why she wants TJPW to have a championship that will allow her to have deathmatches! She’s annoyed that Hyper Misao gets to have a Hardcore Match in DDT next month instead of her but she at least appreciates the roster is becoming more open to doing that style.

The rookie Yuki Arai has made it her goal to wrestle against her seniors and do her best against them. That was proven today with her match against Rika Tatsumi. The veteran had the smart gameplan to work over Arai’s leg, forcing the idol to get desperate and risk fighting at a faster pace. But Arai put Tatsumi is danger with a deep Sleeper Hold she wouldn’t let go of until Tatsumi reached the ropes. Targeting the leg then paid off for Tatsumi when she dodged the Finally, took Arai down with a Dragon Screw and made her tap out to the Figure 4 Leg Lock. Tatsumi said by winning through determination she could feel both her own passion and also Arai’s spirit in the ring. She previously talked about being a spark that will cause a big bang and will leave it up to the fans to think if they saw it today. Arai feels a sense of accomplishment despite losing. It was a great experience and one she thinks might change her life. Tatsumi wants to fight her again when she is stronger. She thinks she will still beat her then, of course.

Last week Nodoka Tenma pinned Shoko Nakajima in the 10-Woman Tag match. She wasn’t able to repeat the result here. The closest she came was with a Lift-Up Back Flip but she couldn’t hit the Killswitch when she needed to. Nakajima recovered, hit the Double Arm DDT and won with the Diving Senton.

There was change in roles for Match #3. Yuki Kamifuku hates it whenever Hyper Misao makes new rules for her matches, so she came up with a new match of her own to give her a taste of her own medicine. The Happy Lucky Quiz had Kamifuku and Misao answering trivia questions. The first to get three correct would win. All of the questions were about Kamifuku and her family so the quiz turned out to be heavily rigged in her favour. When Misao started complaining, Kamifuku attacked her and a proper match broke out. Well I say proper but it ended up with both women spraying each other in the face with disinfectant. There was a scramble for pins and Kamifuku got the three count in the end with a Crucifix style cradle.

A rare result happened early in the show. Haruna Neko directly won a match! Maybe she’s finally figuring out how to put it all together. Yuki Aino, Nao Kakuta, Raku and Mahiro Kiryu did their things while Neko fought off Pom Harajuku. Neko rolled her way into hitting the Nekodebreaker to get the three count.

The Run-Up Bulldog Headlock is quickly becoming an effective finisher for Marika Kobashi. She was in trouble going against Suzume & Arisu Endo’s teamwork but Moka Miyamoto stood up to keep the match level. Suzume got rid of Miyamoto with a Facecrusher but Endo could not seal the deal on her own. That was when Kobashi pulled out the Bulldog for the victory.

Tokyo Narimasu Act Hall
150 Fans – No Vacancy

1. Yuka Sakazaki defeated Pom Harajuku with the Magical Merry-Go-Round (8:14).
2. 3 Way Match: Shoko Nakajima defeated Raku and Arisu Endo when Nakajima pinned Endo with the Northern Lights Suplex (7:39).
3. Hyper Misao & Miu Watanabe defeated Yuki Kamifuku & Mahiro Kiryu when Watanabe pinned Kiryu with the Tear Drop (10:22).
4. Mizuki, Hikari Noa & Marika Kobashi defeated Nodoka Tenma, Nao Kakuta & Haruna Neko when Noa pinned Neko with the Blizzard Suplex (12:46).
5. Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh & Suzume defeated Rika Tatsumi, Yuki Aino & Moka Miyamoto when Itoh submitted Miyamoto with the Itoh Punish (17:02).

With two days to go until the Korakuen Hall show, 121000000 are ready to beat The Magical Sugar Rabbits and win the Princess Tag Team Titles. If they do win, Maki Itoh promises to bring Miyu Yamashita somewhere to celebrate. She also joked that Suzume is cuter than Yamashita which crushed Yamashita’s spirits.

Some mind games are being played between Yuki Kamifuku and Hyper Misao. Kamifuku knows that Misao hates dance music so she made the sound team play loud club songs over the speakers. Luckily for Misao, Miu Watanabe quickly made her way over to the music guy and politely asked him to turn it down. She also got the pin on Mahiro Kiryu so the result gives Misao an edge over Kamifuku for their Korakuen Hall singles match.

Pom Harajuku came up with a cunning plan for her 3rd Anniversary match. She entered the ring wearing a referee uniform identical to Daisuke Kiso. She then put on a cardboard mask of Kiso’s face and forced Kiso to wear a costume of herself. Yuka Sakazaki came out and thought Kiso was Harajuku so she wrestled him while Harajuku was disguised as the ref until it was time to ambush her opponent. While the plan did work, the time came for Harajuku to fight Sakazaki fairly and Sakazaki won out in the end.

1. Yuki Aino defeated Moka Miyamoto with the Venus DDT (8:15).
2. 3 Way Match: Marika Kobashi defeated Pom Harajuku and Mahiro Kiryu when Kobashi pinned Harajuku with the Run-Up Bulldog Headlock (8:00).
3. Hyper Misao defeated Arisu Endo with the Hypami Returns (8:02).
4. Yuki Kamifuku & Raku defeated Suzume & Haruna Neko when Kamifuku pinned Neko with the Famouser (9:36).
5. Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh, Nodoka Tenma, Miu Watanabe & Yuki Arai defeated Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki, Hikari Noa, Shoko Nakajima & Rika Tatsumi when Tenma pinned Nakajima with the Killswitch (26:51).

Several of the big matches for next week’s Korakuen Hall show crossed together in the 10-Woman Tag Match. After a long fight mixing together the different pairings, Shoko Nakajima made the crucial mistake of missing the Diving Senton. That allowed Nodoka Tenma to pin her with the Killswitch. After the match Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh both spoke of their intentions to win the Princess Tag Team Titles from The Magical Sugar Rabbits. Yamashita said she was only focused on fighting Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki today. Miu Watanabe vowed to beat Hikari Noa for the International Princess Title. Tenma & Yuki Arai also laid down their claims to beat Nakajima & Rika Tatsumi in their respective singles matches at Korakuen.

We finally got an admission of guilt from Hyper Misao. She is a superhero who cheats! She promised to fight Arisu Endo fair and square because she was confident she would not be outmatched against her. That lasted for about five minutes. Misao lost ground to Endo and pulled out her spray can but Endo grabbed it and sprayed her instead. However Misao was still able to recover and win in the end.

Pom Harajuku spent most of the 3 Way Match carrying an expensive high grade camera. She insisted taking pictures of Marika Kobashi and Mahiro Kiryu as if it was just those two against each other. Kobashi was happy to pose for her while Kiryu was confused. Harajuku tried her best to protect the camera but doing so cost her the match with Kobashi getting the win over her.

1. YuuRI “Glamorous Valkyrie” Trial Single Match Round 2: YuuRI Vs Maya Yukihi
2. Ganjo Special Tag Match: Yuna Manase & Saki Akai Vs Yuu Yamagata & HARUKAZE

Just when things were looking at its bleakest for Yuna Manase, help has come from an unlikely face. Saki Akai wants to see the woman with a never say die attitude that she fought last month. So she is now helping Manase bring that fire back and finally get a win against Yuu Yamagata & HARUKAZE. Yamagata does not know who Akai is but welcomes her participation in the match.

Match 2 for YuuRI’s trial series is against another big name on the joshi scene, Maya Yukihi.

Moeka Haruhi will be on the show. Storyline wise she’s come across as the odd woman out on the Ganbare☆Joshi events so far.

5. Ganbare☆Climax 2021 – Round 2C: Kouki Iwasaki Vs Shuichiro Katsumura
6. Ganbare☆Climax 2021 – Round 2B: Shinichiro Tominaga Vs Yumehito Imanari

The Ganbare☆Climax moves on to Round 2. Shinichiro Tominaga eliminating Keisuke Ishii was the big surprise in Round 1. Can he get a Cinderella run going by defeating the last tournament winner Yumehito Imanari? Meanwhile Tetsuhiro Kuroda and Mizuki Watase get their first matches in the bracket. Kuroda is seen as a god by Ken Ohka because he was nice to him back in Ohka’s rookie days. Watase is as motivated as he has ever been to go far and grab some success in the ring.

Soma Takao has been hanging around at Ganbare☆Pro recently to show support for the other wrestlers in his generation. After being by Shota’s side at the last show, Takao was invited to wrestle on a Ganpro show for the first time.

Also at the show will be Shinjiro Otani. He is now the on-site director for Ganpro.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “ALL RISE ’21”, 25/11/2021
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki (c) Vs Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh

The Magical Sugar Rabbits are handed a tough first defence. 121000000 are a united front in the aftermath to the “WRESTLE PRINCESS II” main event. I think. They’re bickering over whether or not Miyu Yamashita really cares about Maki Itoh. It’s the opposite to Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki. Those two with the Princess Tag Titles have in the past been the most unbeatable duo in TJPW. 121000000 need to get their heads together (perhaps literally) if they want to win the belts.

Yuki Arai will be on the show.

8. Princess Of Princess Title: Miyu Yamashita (c) defeated Maki Itoh with the Crash Rabbit Heat (17:23).
*V3 for Miyu Yamashita.

Sadly for Maki Itoh her happy ending was just for the Tokyo Princess Cup and no further. She had a sound gameplan against Miyu Yamashita, targeting her waist to make the Itoh Punish and Itoh Deluxe more effective. She also had counters ready for the Skull Kick. However Yamashita had those counters scouted from their previous matches together and rocked her opponent with the move. Yamashita had enough respect for Itoh to know she could still fight so she allowed her the chance to get back up. Itoh used her remaining strength to duck a Buzzsaw Kick but Yamashita followed with a Sole Butt to the face and then the Crash Rabbit Heat to win the match.

Yamashita praised Itoh for becoming stronger. It’s because of her that Yamashita wanted to fight for this match in Ota Ward Gymnasium today. But the story of Yamashita and Itoh isn’t over today and neither is 121000000. The two cried and hugged each other. Itoh then stuck up her middle finger and Yamashita pressed her fist against it. Yamashita told the fans the Princess Of Princess Title is the most important treasure in her life. She will continue to defend it and make Tokyo Joshi Pro even bigger in the process!

The final moment of the show was a big announcement for the company. TJPW will run their first Sumo Hall show by themselves next year! “GRAND PRINCESS ’22” will take place on 19th March, 2022. That is the day before DDT “JUDGEMENT 2022” takes place in the same venue. Yamashita said she is happy to finally run a TJPW show there and she will definitely be the champion for it!

It took two years but The Magical Sugar Rabbits have regained the Princess Tag Team Titles from NEO Biishiki-gun! The result spoils what would have been a majestic day for the former champions. Sakisama made her entrance from a throne covered in roses with her loyal maid Mei Saint-Michel by her side. But they weren’t ready for the energy Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki brought with them. Neither was Daisuke Kiso because the referee got bumped during the match and missed Mizuki putting Saint-Michel in the Facelock. Saint-Michel used her broom to free herself and then used the same broom for a witch-style Double Knee Drop from the top rope. She then put Mizuki in the Saint-Michel submission hold but Sakazaki grabbed her partner’s hand from the ring apron and pulled her towards the ropes. In the scramble for the finish, Saint-Michel set Mizuki up for the Newton Crash but she was shaken off and thrown over with the Cutie Special. Mizuki then hit another Cutie Special for the three count.

Backstage Saint-Michel fell onto the interview table in a slump. Sakisama told her she isn’t angry over the result. In fact today she can say she is now a full-blown maid! She told her to remember the days of their beauty training. They’ve done it in the rain, the wind, the heat, the cold, all on a tightrope over a cliff. Sakisama understands her maid is working hard so she wants the fans to be grateful that they got the chance to see NEO Biishiki-gun today.

That was the only title change on the show today. The remaining championship match to talk about was Hikari Noa successfully defending the International Princess Title against Yuki Aino. Noa blocked the Venus DDT and struggled her way out of the UBV. With Aino’s big moves avoided, Noa hit her with two Super Kicks and got the pin with the Blizzard Suplex. Noa said she was more excited than nervous going into the match in such a big venue. She wants to go even bigger. Noa wonders if maybe some day she will defend the title at a TJPW show held inside the Tokyo Dome!

Miu Watanabe wasn’t able to achieve her goal of Giant Swinging Aja Kong. She did the next best thing which was to Giant Swing Moka Miyamoto into Kong’s legs to knock her down (probably not the best thing for Kong because before the match she announced on social media an upcoming leave of absence to get knee surgery). Also Watanabe was able to Body Slam Kong after some effort. Yuki Arai also did her best against the monster. That got Kong’s attention because she shouted “Nice to meet you!” to Arai before chopping her down. Together, Watanabe & Aino tried to cut down Kong with a Laserbeam/High Kick combo. But their follow up Brainbuster attempt was reversed with Kong overpowering the both of them. Kong then hit a Reverse Elbow Drop from the turnbuckles onto Arai to get the win. Miyamoto called the experience amazing. She doesn’t know if she left a mark in the match but she did her best and still enjoyed it. Kong encouraged her to become more greedy in the ring because it’s more fun to do various things as a wrestler. Kong thinks somebody will get the Giant Swing on her eventually but she didn’t want it to be today. Also after the match Arai received a message from Kong that just said “Welcome.” Arai takes it that she is now accepted as a pro wrestler so even though she lost, she is still happy.

The reunited Twin Cam Monsters were victorious over Suzume & Arisu Endo. The combined speed and experience was too much but the underdogs still put up a fight. Riho & Shoko Nakajima gave Suzume a combined Northern Lights Suplex. Endo broke the count but Nakajima threw her in position for Riho to take her out with the Somato. From there Nakajima pinned Suzume with the Diving Senton. Suzume was pleased to show how much she has grown since her debut two years ago and also encouraged Endo for helping her when she needed it. Riho enjoyed the match and liked the atmosphere of the show. She also praised Suzume for her progress.

The new team VENYU left a strong impression from the moment their ring entrance began. Asuka dealt with Marika Kobashi (who was returning from a cracked rib injury), leaving Yuki Kamifuku in the ring with her sometimes nemesis Nao Kakuta. Kamifuku escaped the Shiden Kai and gave Kakuta the Famouser from behind. Kamifuku would then his a second Famouser this time from the turnbuckles to win the match. Kakuta thought she would have been able to beat two Roppongi girls because she was teaming with a Shibuya girl. Kobashi had to explain to her that the atmosphere in Roppongi is very different to that in Shibuya. Kamifuku said she was glad not to be wrestling against Asuka today. She also criticized Kakuta for not showing the same motivation against her that she had when they feuded. Asuka thinks the match went better than expected so there may be more from VENYU to look forward to.

Hyper Misao was so excited to see Rika Tatsumi come back that she made a sign to welcome her back. She was so excited to wrestle Tatsumi again that she forgot Nodoka Tenma was in the match. She told Tenma to leave but Tatsumi attacked her to start the action. Misao couldn’t contain her happiness when she got to be alone with Tatsumi in the ring. She held up the sign while doing I Am A Hero onto Tatsumi. Tenma broke the pin with a Diving Body Press onto both of them. She then got the pin herself by giving Misao the Killswitch.

The opening match was the return of Mahiro Kiryu from injury and also the TJPW debut of Ram Kaichow. The finish saw Pom Harajuku get rid of Kaya Toribami with the Pom Do Justice and Raku pin Haruna Neko with the Doctor Yellow. Kaichow celebrated the win with her team by sharing a packed lunch with them backstage.

The 2022 Korakuen Hall schedule was revealed during the show. Also announced was the date and location for “WRESTLE PRINCESS III”. It will be held in Tokyo Dome City Hall on 9th October, 2022.
